17Who is forsaking the guide of her youth, And the covenant of her God hath forgotten.


In Context

14 Who are rejoicing to do evil, They delight in frowardness of the wicked,

15 Whose paths are crooked, Yea, they are perverted in their ways.

16 To deliver thee from the strange woman, From the stranger who hath made smooth her sayings,

17 Who is forsaking the guide of her youth, And the covenant of her God hath forgotten.

18 For her house hath inclined unto death, And unto Rephaim her paths.

19 None going in unto her turn back, Nor do they reach the paths of life.
